*sigh* Inspiration is hard to come by when you are preoccupied with whatever life throws at you…but then again, that’s what makes a poet’s life more interesting; writing even in times of inspiration-drought. lol…
I don’t own a camera but I am amazed by what you can do with it.
Damn, wordpress won’t show my paragraphs! I have even tried using html!Argh!!!
I have seen a ball of light,
her hair in a ponytail;
and I’ve caught a swift in flight.
I have seen, as inches, a mile,
and beheld Nature’s beauty;
captured the warmth of her smile.
Yet there’s just one way to tell:
Answer the calls of duty!
I have seen eyes and faces,
filled with fear, pain or remorse;
and the filth in high places.
I watched hunger consume flesh,
and heard wars’ loud voices speak;
seen blood, wounds forever fresh.
I’ve learnt life’s sometimes like moss:
Firm on sight but it’s root’s weak!
I have gathered Time’s fragments,
Motion’s footprints on Time’s path;
and delayed Fate’s evil hand.
I’ve the power to cause change:
One click and the sun won’t set!

Hmm. I like the new style you’re using.
“I have gathered Time’s fragments,
Motion’s footprints on Time’s path;”
Those two lines got me.
Maybe it’s me, but the poem doesn’t quite seem to end. But then if it was meant to be an abrupt end, your purpose was fulfilled…
